Homeowner Shoots at 3 Masked Gunmen Trying to Kick in Door

A homeowner shot at three masked gunmen during an attempted home invasion. The drama erupted at a home in Washington. First, the suspects tried to fool the homeowner into opening the door by posing as Seattle police. They then pushed against the door and tried to kick it in. However, they were not prepared for what happened when the door gave way. The homeowner started to shoot at the would-be intruders. All three suspects took off running.

He wasn’t protecting his property. He was protecting his life!

It's not just defending your property, it's defending your LIFE!

Is this self defense ? What a stupid question 3 men kicking down a door with guns in hand 🤦🏽‍♀️

[ballinforjesus]

"we don't encourage" self defense. Unreal...

[mybrainhurts]

The fact that the question “Will he be charged?” would have to even be asked is sickening.

[keithrickson]

Three armed men try to break down his door in the night and the very fact that ANYONE is even asking whether he should be charged is absolutely dispicable.

Is this self defense!!!?? What kind of question is that???!!! What do you think those guys were going to do once they got in the house??

[propionic]

“Why do people want to have an AR?”, because of that

[MRKinoYoutube]

The fact the reporter even asked if this is considered self-defense is absolutely psychotic.

[kioloup]

The fact that the homeowner waited until they opened the door shows amazing restraint.

If this is not SELF DEFENCE nothing in this world can be labelled as self defence

[matthewona]

"Was this self defense or will he be charged?" WTF.... the mere fact that you as a homeowner have to think about this while protecting your home when you have seconds to decide is disgusting

[mattjingles]

He was protecting his life, not his property.

[TopNotch_Fishing]

It is pure ignorance to even consider charging this man for defending himself from armed attackers breaking in

[Grendel]

That there's even a question about the homeowner being charged is an insult to law abiding people.

[BrendonBeast]

3 people with guns and you wouldnt encourage firing first? bro

[missymonroe]

The fact that they felt they needed to ask if this is self defense is sickening.

"we understand that there is a right and a need to protect your property" Officer, this home owner was fighting FOR HIS LIFE.

[belladonna]

IT WAS SELF DEFENSE. THE DOOR OPENED AND A GUN FROM OUTSIDE WAS POINTED RIGHT AT THE HOME OWNER. THE OTHERS HAD GUNS TOO. HE WAS PROTECTING HIS LIFE.❤

[DoctorOnce]

He wasn’t protecting his property, he was protecting his life! If this wasn’t clear self defense I don’t know what is.
